Different Tomes for Different Units ???

[PaladinHeart]

Is there a way to make a tome not work for a unit, but let that unit carry it? Without disabling said unit's ability to use items, of course.

Umm.. well anyways. How would I do this?

Like I want X unit only able to use X tomes and Y unit only able to use Y tomes, and they could carry tomes around they can't use and swap with each other.

Probably by using dummy items and triggers, yeah.

Simply make the tomes not be used on a pickup, and then trigger it only for specific units. Also whenever a unit picks up a tome that they can't use trigger it so that they have to drop it.

How to do it:
Disable tomes to be used when picked up then make two triggers. One to automatically use the item if the hero is of the right type, and one to automatically drop the item if the hero is of the wrong type.

Use item if right hero
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Tome of Whatever
(Unit-type of (Hero manipulating item)) Equal to Right Hero

Drop item if wrong hero
